WATCH: Sen. Kaine questions Stefanik in confirmation hearing

Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., questioned Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., in her confirmation hearing for ambassador to the U.N. before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Tuesday. Stefanik, a loyal ally to President Donald Trump, is chair of the House Republican Conference, and was the youngest woman ever elected to Congress when she won her seat in 2014. While she has little foreign policy experience, Stefanik has been vocal about Israel and its war with Hamas. She has called for a “complete reassessment” of the U.S.’s funding for the UN.
